Of course there's a market, it's commercial, not residential: https://scytherobotics.com/

Interesting. I'm curious if you've seen this in operation and can vouch that it actually performs exceptionally better than residential products? I ask because the marketing claims all sound very similar; vision based object avoidance, mapping, and so on. So, I am skeptical this actual does anything much better besides the mow quality itself. It looks like this is good for large mostly open spaces and it basically knocks that out while the minimal lawn crew focuses on the trimming, edges, and cleanup. All to say, it looks bigger not better from a tech perspective. I still see the value for a commercial crew.

  • I don't know a thing about it other than that it and others like it exist in the market today. My point is only that there's no market for a residential buyer of a $20,000 mower.
